Description Brian Debelius 2004-09-17 07:36:06 UTC

With the increasing number of Linux distributions shipping, or considering shipping CUPS as their standard printing system, we have had many requests to provide patches to the standard GNU Ghostscript source distribution so that they can ship a single version of Ghostscript.  Easy Software Products now produces maintenance updates of GNU Ghostscript under the name ESP Ghostscript. These updates incorporate bug fixes to the current GNU version of Ghostscript as well as the latest CUPS, GIMP-print, and other add-ons to Ghostscript.

"app-text/ghostscript" is in fact the ESP ghostscript.
dunno what you mean by "GNU ghostscript", the traditional ghostscript is aladdin version, which is available as "app-text/ghostscript-afpl".

if i'm not missing something fundamental here your request is "invalid"?
